  • Publication number: 20200155287
    Abstract: A set for at least one of gluing, bonding, modeling and repairing of an object. The set includes a housing with a first end, a second end, and a reservoir, a light-curable material arranged in the reservoir, and a lamp which emits a light having a wavelength or a spectrum of wavelengths at which the light-curable material is selectively cured and which is coupled to the housing at the second end so that the light emitted by the lamp is only emitted in a direction which faces away from the first end. The reservoir has an exit opening which selectively discharges the light-curable material at the first end. The housing is completely impermeable to light.

  • Publication number: 20040126741
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1), for the removal of teeth and/or tooth roots from the tooth socket, or the jawbone, by means of a pincer-like drawing device (2), comprising a first and a second lever arm (42). The first lever arm can be supported by means of a support (9), on the jawbone ridge (8) or the tooth upper part or tooth crown (7) and the support (9) comprises at least one opening (10) for a drawing piece (11) which may be connected to a connector element on the second lever arm. The two lever arms may adopt an opposing position and displaced away from each other on operation of the lever, thus moving the drawing device.
